  1. @BurntEyes, your expectations of a bunch of 20-YO kids are wildly optimistic.

    Went to Enchiladas Y Mas tonight. 35 minute wait. OK, fine. 2 minutes later we got called in. I'll take the 33 minute error. That place was absolutely hopping. I've never heard it so loud. I had just had tacos elsewhere yesterday, so I ordered migas. Those were probably the best migas I've ever had. Phenomenal. My wife got her usual (Enchiladas Perfecto) and says they were in top form, too. My can of Shiner Bock didn't suck. EyM is at peak TexMex. Stop going there.
  3. I got to record him once. I was green as grass. He could not have been more gracious.
  4. Well, if that doesn't scream "Deep State", I don't know what would.
  5. Ian McLagan going on before Los Lonely Boys. What a world.
  6. Shit, they didn't get a color TV until I was in grad school. "Cable" came earlier (like 5 channels).
  7. I can't even figure out the exact perspective here. "Troll" seems apropos.
  8. Well, it's not a REQUIREMENT that they're part of the same ethnic group. People can convert to Judaism and thus be "Jewish", regardless of race or ethnicity.
  9. I'm just glad they have permanent pissers for the men now.
  10. There has never been a more confusing foreign relations issue for me in my lifetime. I have many Jewish friends, and many Muslim friends. I just don't engage in the homeland discussions. I can't see any clear solution. Many devout Jews will claim complete ownership of that region dating back to Abraham, but that doesn't pass the sniff test, because there have always been a lot more people of other religions & ethnicities there. I do know this: I wish they'd stop shooting each other. What a shitshow.
  11. There's nothing like Dirty Sixth early on a weekend morning. I don't know how the Pecan Street Festival "artists" do it. The filth and stench is unreal.
  12. I'm pretty sure at least half of my astigmatism is due to my constant efforts to see through the scrambled Cinemax on my parent's black and white Curtis Mathes 19" TV.
  13. Seems like they're really pushing this new release. I wouldn't be surprised.
  14. Bad Brains, Esther's Pool, April 1982, photo by Bill Daniel:
  15. Yeah, nobody said young voters are going to turn out for Trump. It's just that a significant number of them either won't turn out at all or will vote for some rando 3rd party candidate.
  16. Ted needs to pick a horse. If he doesn't, the whole field is gonna DNF in some sort of equine mass casualty event on the home stretch.
  17. He traveled from Houston to Birmingham/Tuscaloosa for THAT?
  18. Please link that passage. I made that mistake, too -- it was a Wirehaired Pointer, which is presumably a hunting dog. Not exactly the most common "working" role on a ranch, though.
  19. I'd like to read the exact passage in her book. Anybody have a link?
